Letters from the Editor

Writing, editing, and publishing with a twist of candor

Letters from the Editor: On momentum, NYC public library budget cuts, and more

Summer is for Building Momentum
​

There's no denying it: summer is here. Three months of longer days means more time to think, plan, do, make progress...but what are you focused on? What are you driving toward?

As serious writers know, so much of getting published is about persistence (case in point: Julia Phillips, featured in the Books on Your Radar this issue, who queried 100 agents before striking gold). It's no small feat to become a published author, and the wall I've seen many a talented writer run into is losing that momentum, that drive that ends in success, before they're anywhere near where they want to be.

When is Your Book Ready to be Published?
 
I had a lot of really great questions come out of the AMA I ran a bit ago on Reddit, and a few of those questions sparked some reflection on my end. One question that stuck with me in particular was asking how you can know if your book is ready for publishing, and as I've been turning that over in my head lately, I wanted to share some thoughts with you all.

Letters from the Editor: On the importance of expertise, publishing scams, and more

It's May at last! Summer is just around the corner, and with the energy that comes with warmer weather, I have no doubt people are getting ready to put all sorts of big plans into action -- both personal and professional. 

I'd like to take this opportunity to caution us all against a rising trend I've noticed in the entrepreneur world of "you can sell anything."
